It is not uncommon for a lot of Filipinos that the Philippines is a third-world country. Pinpointing each and every cause of the country’s exposure to poverty will be a tedious task because they do not only include skewed income distribution, rapid population growth, unemployment, and graft and corruption. There are a lot more reasons that we may have failed to mention because it is crystal clear that we could never blame underdevelopment to just one cause as everything is understandably interrelated.
